Fingerprinting isn’t always possible to defeat, and its not always possible to avoid making accounts (work and school accounts)

However, it should be possible to fill up tracked data with meaningless garbage and reduce the signal-to-noise ratio. Ex: a bot that browses random products on amazon to reduce profiling accuracy.

Do you guys know of any tools that do this? Anything from browser extensions to command line scripts, to anonymous group-accounts.

    Tails is an operating system

    Yes, and it comes with Tor Browser, which normally does not spoof your OS when probed via javascript (only the user-agent), that is why I asked if you had a patch to the source code, which is what they would have to be using in order to do what you’re saying.

    All of them report your operating system to be Windows

    As it stands, I am not able to verify your claims, as Tor Browser on Tails 6.7 is still showing the true OS via javascript queries for me:
